One of Austin’s leading workforce development organizations has found its permanent CEO.
Workforce Solutions Capital Area, a nonprofit that supports workforce development efforts like the Austin Infrastructure Academy, announced on Feb. 25 that it had chosen Yael Lawson as its full-time CEO. Lawson had been serving as the interim CEO since last September after the previous CEO, Tamara Atkinson, left the nonprofit to join Goodwill Central Texas.
Lawson is very familiar with Workforce Solutions’ operations because she was previously its chief operations officer and has worked in various roles at the nonprofit since 2000.
